thanks for the responses :)
you are correct in that it should take not long at all and i realize that... but if you dont use it you lose and while i have both Wings3D and Silo, i havent used either in nearly a year and never was good in the first place. i started on one of the more "complex" models a few weeks back and after about a half hour realized that someone who knew what they were doing could probably whip out all the models in nearly the same time i just spent not finishing one.
scaling a cube, which is how i started originally, doesnt quite work since some of the more complex shapes are not regular (ie think the L from tetris in 3D). i then thought i could piece the blocks together by scaling multiple blocks and placing them correctly to make a shape like the L but that didnt work when i started applying the cel shading.
@smilertoo - i have a couple of feelers out. if neither pan out i will definately keep you in mind.
